say goodbye to
Li Shutong
Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is blue.
The evening breeze blows the flute, and the sunset is beyond the mountain.
The horizon, the horizon, intimate friends are half scattered.
Life is once in a blue moon, only parting.
Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is blue.
When will you return this? Don't hesitate to come.
The horizon, the horizon, intimate friends are half scattered.
A pot of turbid water has spilled all the joy, so let's bid farewell to Meng Han tonight.

This lyric has three paragraphs, one of which is the same as the other.
The first paragraph is all about scenes, and typical images such as "Changting", "Ancient Road", "Fangcao", "Evening Wind" and "Sunset" are selected. "Changting" and "Ancient Road" are written about farewell places, and Liu Yong's "Lin Yuling" said: "Cold cicadas are sad, Changting is late, and showers begin to rest." Bai Juyi's Farewell to Ancient Grass: "They squeezed sweetly on the old road and reached the crumbling gate. Oh, my friend's prince, you left again, and I heard them sigh behind you. " "Cao Fang" is a metaphor for leaving love. There is a saying in "The Songs of Chu Recruit Hermits" that "the prince and the grandson don't return, and the grass grows and the warbler flies". The Night Wind Blows Willow writes farewell, and "willow" and "stay" are homophonic, conveying resentment and nostalgia. The Book of Songs: "I wasn't there yesterday, Liu Yiyi; I think about it today, it's raining. " Dai Shulun's "Willow on the Dike": "The weeping willows are endless, and the spring comes to weave the sorrow." "The mountain beyond the mountain" is a metaphor for living far apart. All these parting feelings are shrouded in the "sunset", only feeling the warmth of friendship, the warmth of the sunset and the warmth of the evening breeze. This passage is a description of the environment and a rendering of the parting scene: at sunset, the mountains are connected and endless, with lush grass as the background; Nearby, pavilions, ancient roads, breezes, willows and weeping willows, and sad flute sounds, who has experienced this kind of experience does not feel sad?
The second paragraph is the climax of the whole song. Since it is farewell, of course, there is a feeling that "the end of the world is short, the ends of the earth, and close friends are scattered". Life is only a few decades. How many bosom friends can you have? Goodbye, when? So, those ecstasy addicts who don't do it. "A cup of turbid wine makes me happy", which is really a helpless sadness. When can we be together without wine, "all the doors are empty"? Finally, time and space are intertwined, and the whole article is summarized by the present tense "Farewell to Meng Han tonight". Emotionally, the reunion in the dream takes care of the above-mentioned "mountain beyond the mountain" and repeats it rhythmically, but this repeated emphasis is a further miss, and only acacia dreams are frequent.
The third paragraph repeats the first paragraph, and the enhancement of images and the repetition of phonology form a kind of remote beauty.
The lyrics of the whole song "Farewell" are fresh and elegant, sincere and sincere, with the charm of classical poetry, fresh and refined, easy to understand and catchy. The phrase "the evening breeze blows the flute and the sunset is outside the mountain" is endless, echoing the cyclical melody and deepening the emotional parting. The melody is smooth and melodious, and it is divided into three sections: "starting, opening and closing", and the starting section is repeated in the same section; But the sentences in each paragraph are the same, forming the form of A(a-b)B(c-b)A(a-b); The repetition of sentence B makes the lingering feeling come to mind. "All scenery is sentimental", pavilions, ancient roads, grasslands, evening breeze and sunset are all seen from people's eyes, and the scenery remains the same. When people are not around, it sounds bleak. The whole song is closely related to the theme and full of helplessness to life. Its aesthetic effect echoed in the silence of "drinking Meng Han".
The whole word is farewell, but it avoids the direct description of farewell, and even does not point out the specific object of farewell. Only pavilions, ancient roads, meadows, weeping willows, sunset, evening breeze and whimpering flutes are displayed in front of us. However, it is this series of scenery descriptions from near to far, step by step, which not only subtly hints at the traveler's whereabouts, but also effectively sets off the farewell atmosphere, and the narrative in the second half and
